"Hope," the lost but now found
Puggle under the care of Heart of Niagara Animal Rescue, will attend the August
volunteer meeting. Join him Wednesday, Aug. 13, at 6:30 p.m. inside First
Presbyterian Church of Lewiston, 505 Cayuga St.

"Hope," pictured, slipped her collar upon her
transport arrival in late fall of last year and was running in the woods
in the Lewiston/Ransomville areas for several months. The rescue mobilized
volunteers, sought the help of professionals and, with the perseverance and
dedication of many, "Hope" was safely secured and brought to safety in early
spring. She survived the long winter outside, continues to make positive
strides and is adjusting well.

Volunteers will be able to visit
with "Hope" and also enjoy the camaraderie of an ice cream social that will
take place during the meeting, which is open to the public. Heart of Niagara
invites new volunteers and everyone is welcome. Topics will include a recap the
recent picnic and other 2014 events.
